    Description

    My name is Tara. My mom and I moved here and live on a 2 acre property with a house and cabanas.
    There's many projects in the works and we are seeking people that can bring in extra creativity and skill.

    Belize is amazing; a small gem with a lot of love. It's magical here. On the grounds, there is really great energy and everything we're doing is for something greater with a purpose. Just being a part of this exciting adventure, creating, growing, healing, expanding will be a great experience.
    The bay is a mile down the street. There are Mayan archeological sites near by.

    Please note: This is a vegan establishment, we welcome all but we do not allow any products of animals, including eggs, dairy, fish, meat, on the property.

    No offense but no cigarette smokers.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The area is in a small town with a lot of love. Community engagement is essential to part of life here and at times we will be partaking in community service for those in need and picking up trash in the neighborhood. The people here are kind and hard workers. They can teach us skills.

    1. We are working on renovating the main house including kitchen and bathroom, as well as, the treehouses and guest rooms. We need people with basic carpentry skills to build tables, cabinets, and shelves.
    2. Corozal has an outdated practice of burning trash. The town needs help implementing a more sustainable way of dealing with the trash. We are in the process of creating multiple community compost systems. We need help building bins, collecting and sorting waste.
    3. Artist of all types. We need murals, paintings, sculptures, decorating, etc. Also, we are experimenting turning trash into art and other useful items.
    4. I need someone who has experience in YouTube channel, taking videos and photos. Having fun with social media, documenting the projects.
    5. In spring 2024, I need someone with experience in mosaics. It would be great to have someone with an artistic flair.
    6. Maintenance, yard work, and cleaning is expected of everyone.
    7. Fitness/yoga people. We do group activities.
    8. One and two week visitors are great, in addition, I am also looking for a person that would like to stay for a month to help cook, clean, light garden tasks, exercise, would be great. You would have a treehouse equipped with kitchen and bedroom.
